At Gallery 37 you can see and buy original stencil art paintings by one of the most known artists of Cyprus Christos Kakoulis (CRS) and you have a chance to meet with him. You can also see the world record of the smallest hand painting on Canvas (0,48cm) and the world record of the smallest stencil art painting (3.75cm), both of them are certified world records from the organization of the record setter. Also, we can ship paintings around the world. We are probably the most unique art gallery of Cyprus.

There is so much in this museum and it is so well presented, including narratives on the exhibits. Fortunately, the museum is not swamped with visitors so you have plenty of time to absorb what you are seeing and to spend time by your favourite items - I particularly liked their own version of the terracotta army (a lot more variety in their characters).

This museum - located in the old part of Nicosia - is a great way to learn about the history of Nicosia itself - going back thousands of years to more recent times. The museum has an excellent collection which is enhanced by well produced interactives and virtual tours. Best of all it is free. A must see.
10. Kykkos Monastery (Panagia tou Kykkou)

4.5 based on 1,079 reviews
founded in the 12th century, the monastery is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and contains many precious icons and relics.
Reviewed By Ingver_76 - Riga, Latvia
We were really lucky because there are no people these times travelling around and we were not more than 5 in the church and monastery. You should read the history of this place and I can say only one thing - the icon is very “strong” when I have approached it I instantly felt tears, it is amazing. 2020 years people are praying to this holy mother. This is strong. One thing to add - to get there is pretty tough- more then 50 km on serpentine road, it is a real challenge
